What followed was simple. The White Phoenix team destroyed the central altar, found the talisman of the Snakeman base and destroyed it, and led the laborers on the ghost ship to return before the talisman's effectiveness completely disappeared.
Less than a minute after the ghost ship left with the two ghost ships, the effectiveness of the giant bubble shield completely dissipated. The giant bubbles that once opened up the seawater also disappeared, and tens of thousands of tons of seawater poured into this area again.
At the bottom of the sea, a sizable whirlpool actually appeared on the surface of the sea, and it took a few minutes for it to dissipate.
In the cabin of the ghost ship, the White Phoenix team gathered together again and each described the general process of their respective actions.
Qiao Rui and the other three moved smoothly all the way. There were not many snakemen left behind in the three bases, and there were only one or two leaders guarding them. There was not enough for Qiao Rui and the other three to fight.
And every time a base is built, a large number of human hard workers working in the mines can be added as a new force, and the strength of the Freedom Corps will expand a lot, so the final base is completely flat. Even if Bai Xiaowen doesn't come, it won't take too long.
long time.
Qiao Rui also said something worth noting, that is, the three bases are a little different from the Wagata tribe base that was captured before. There is no incubation room for the heart-eating demon insects, and after the altar was destroyed, there was no similar way to raise the demon insects.
of pool.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a while and said: "In the Bonus Sea, human fleets have rarely passed by since the snake people took hold. I am afraid that the human laborers in these three snake people bases were not captured by themselves, but from
They were sent from the Wagata Tribal Base. To use an analogy, these three bases are similar to forward military bases, while the Wagata Tribal Base is a production base in the rear..."
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said: "There is no need for hard labor, and of course there is no need for the brainwashing of the Heart-Eating Demonic Insects, nor can they raise the Demonic Insects. It seems that the big guy we caught at the Wogata tribe base is quite good.
It’s rare and can only be obtained by destroying a production-type snake base.”
Several teammates nodded.
Qiao Rui said: "Speaking of hard labor, the strength of the Freedom Corps has now expanded to more than 3,000 people. What are you going to do with these people?"
Qiao Rui's meaning was very obvious. The original agreement between Bai Xiaowen and the hard workers was that after the war in the Bonus Sea was over, the hard workers would be allowed to return to the mainland.
But for the White Phoenix Team, it is still crucial to have an army that takes orders from them.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "I already have a plan. I plan to streamline these three thousand people and send the old, weak, sick and disabled among them who are weak in fighting will and weak in strength back to the mainland. After all, forceful melons are not sweet, and the army is weak.
Mixing it up will only damage the combat effectiveness. In the end, I will be very satisfied if I can leave a thousand elites."
Since most of these more than 3,000 people are sailors, and only a few are old, weak, sick and disabled, there must be more than 1,000 elites. Bai Xiaowen mentioned this number because he also considered that not all sailors are willing to stay under his prophet, risking their lives and forgetting.
Fight to the death.
Bai Xiaowen will definitely give speeches and brainwash people and promise benefits, but words are not omnipotent. There are always people who don't want to go to the battlefield and want to go back to the hinterland of the Kuroshio Continent to be an ostrich... reluctantly.
Later, Bai Xiaowen and his teammates took stock of their respective gains from this separate operation.
Bai Xiaowen and Cecilia harvested a total of four gold treasure chests and more than a dozen silver treasure chests. Qiao Rui, Li Shuyi and Han Xu raided three snake bases and harvested even more abundantly, obtaining a total of five gold treasure chests and thirty
Multiple silver treasure chests.
Bai Xiaowen's black soul stone has absorbed a lot of soul essence in the previous battle, and its current growth rate has climbed to 2897/5000, with 2027 soul essence points.
Li Shuyi's Ghost Face has also been upgraded to lv2. In addition to the "Wish Shield" that absorbed magic damage before, a new skill has been activated. It is worth mentioning that this time it is a choice of three.
The first skill is called "Monster Body", which is similar to the virtual effect of the Ring of Void. Within 5 seconds after being turned on, it will gain 99% dodge effect against physical attacks.
The second skill is called "Appearance of Demons and Ghosts". It is a control skill, similar to Bai Xiaowen's intimidation, but it is limited to the front cone range, and facing your own enemies, the priority of control is quite high, with an additional 3 points.
Counting the basic 4 points of Li Shuyi's hero profession, it is a priority of 7 points.
The third skill is called "Heart of the Demon", which is a special summoning skill. After using it, you can call the spirits of the ancestral warriors enshrined in the Imagawa family temple and attack all living beings present without distinction (except the wearer of the Demon Face).
, the duration is 30 seconds.
Regarding this difficult choice of three, Li Shuyi naturally wanted to seek Bai Xiaowen's opinion.
Bai Xiaowen said: "You already have the Ring of Nothingness, and the virtual effect is of little use to you, so the first skill is excluded. The latter two skills actually have their own merits, and of course they have their own limitations. It depends on what you need most.
What."
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen thought about it and said: "As a control skill, Ghost Appearance is more useful when fighting the Awakened, but less useful against the terrifying toughness of high-level bosses in the spirit world. Although it is a range control, in actual combat
It’s still difficult to control a large number of enemies in the game, and you don’t need to use this skill to kill those elite monsters.”
"As for the Heart of the Demon, it can actually be seen as an AOE skill that does not distinguish between friends and foes..." Bai Xiaowen touched his chin and said, "You are mainly focusing on single target output, and the only AOE skill you can use is Shadowless Slash. I feel like
It’s good to have such an alternative AOE. After all, if you want to awaken your Shadowless Slash, you still have a long way to go.”
"But, this skill is used to attack allies together." Li Shuyi said weakly.
"This is indeed a negative effect, but we can test it to understand the range of the skill's effect, the speed and strength of the warrior soul, and then avoid it to minimize the negative effect." Bai Xiaowen said.
Qiao Rui also added: "According to my understanding, the rules of the spirit world are relatively balanced in terms of skills. If a skill has negative effects, it means that its power will not be weak."
"Well, then I will choose the third option." Li Shuyi lit up the third option of Face of Demons lv2.
"Can't you choose the other two skills?" Bai Xiaowen asked one more question.
"Well, they have all turned gray." Li Shuyi said.
"It's a pity that it's not as powerful as the captain's Black Soul Stone," Qiao Rui said with a smile. "The Black Soul Stone is really a top-notch hero-specific equipment, and its origin must be extraordinary. Among the hero-specific equipment I have seen,
